Condition General Morbid Obesity
Case Description

Over many years I had gained over 100 pounds. I had tried many different diets and none of them resulted in permanent weight loss. My doctor suggested I investigate have gastric bypass surgery, he thought it would help me finally lose the weight and maintain it.

After much thought I decided to go ahead and have the surgery. It was a long process just to get to the point of having the surgery. Eight months of nutrition counseling, medical tests, psychological testing and I was finally approved.

At this time I have lost over 125 pounds and am at my goal and maintaining my weight.
